Chapter 332: King Harold Awakes
I woke up to see that Kayla and Sophie already gone. They are having a meal prepared by Prince Bernard.
As for King Harold… he"s awake. But Queen Carmen next to him doesn"t notice that. I guess King Harold want to be alone. Now that he survived, he has many things to think of.
I guess I should go.
Oh, right. I"ll get Albert as well.
As I connected a portal to Albert"s location, Albert entered the portal and told me to bring Lynn, her aide Claudia, and old man Henry.
I get them all to come to my bedroom and all of us went to the dining room as I grabbed my breakfast.
"Oh, Roy, you"re awake? And you brought the others as well." Fabio said as he noticed me walked to the dining room.
Celestine, Prince Bernard and his wife are there as well, as Kayla and Sophie have just finished their meal.
Since the sooner we finished our business, the sooner I can go back to Ca.s.sau, I grabbed the dishes and bring them to where King Harold is waiting.
"He"s awake. I"ll eat in his room so we can talk. And bring that porridge for him to eat." I said as Fabio grabbed the porridge for King Harold.
We entered the room where King Harold is resting, and Queen Carmen was shocked to see that I"m bringing my meal inside the room.
I get some Blobbies to transform into a chair and a table for me so I can hear the discussion while eating. Sophie and Kayla also looked at King Harold"s condition to see if he"s getting better.
"Don"t worry. He"s already awake. He probably just afraid to open his eyes for a while. Thinking that being saved was just a dream. King Harold, open your eyes. You must have heard the news that Queen Carmen, Prince Fabio, and Princess Luna died. They are all wrong. Queen Carmen and Prince Fabio is here in Prince Bernard"s house. As for Luna, she"s in a safe place. By the way, your crush, Claudia, is here as well." I said.
"What?!" King Harold who was faking his sleep, opened his eyes fully after hearing his family members who were supposed to be dead are still alive.
"Good morning. I forgot to say that King Albert, King Henry, and Empress Lynn are all here. I"m your savior and doctor, Roy. Nice to meet you." I introduce myself while I"m at it.
"…eating meal while introducing yourself to a king is not a proper ethic. Why can"t I move my body?" King Harold asked.
"Obviously because you just had a surgery. Most of your bones were broken and I have fixed them. Though you have received healing as well, it"s best for you to take it slowly. I"ll let you have family time while I eat. The others will wait before we can have our discussion."
It"s a tearful reunion of King Harold and his family. Some of them at least. He has been taken for a long time alone and tortured so badly until he couldn"t even move a finger. But his will is so strong that he"s still alive even after all that torture.
The surgery went well, and Kayla has healed him with healing magic. Even now, while I"m eating, Kayla is casting a healing magic at him.
Healing magic can"t heal his weak muscle after not moving for a long time. He needs to recover naturally.
While he"s still in bed unable to move, Fabio, Queen Carmen, and Prince Bernard each telling him their own story of what happen after he was swapped.
"We don"t know when you were swapped. We acted normally. But I can tell you what I did after I know that the current king is a fake." Fabio said.
The first one to speak his story was Fabio. He told the king how Luna found out that the current king is a fake, and how they faked their death with the help of Toni.
"So, it was thanks to Toni. They told me while I"m in the prison that Luna and you died. That"s when I thought it must be a fake. With you two who have special ability to see the future, you would realize that I was swapped. So, when I heard about the news that you died, I have to hold back my smile from appearing because I knew that you must have begun to act. Though I would have never thought that it would take this long for me to be rescued." King Harold said.
"Sorry that it takes too long, father."
"It"s fine. At least I"m still alive."
Queen Carmen and Prince Bernard were confused about Fabio"s special power, and Fabio said he will explain later after everyone have taken their turn.
"Right now, Luna is in a safe place. It"s at Roy"s home. She is happy to made new friends there." Fabio said.
"Oh, right. I forgot to call her as well."
After saying that, I called Sonia to tell someone there that I"m bringing Luna here. Then after receiving a reply, I opened a portal and Luna is already in front of the portal.
"Father!"
Luna run to the bedside and looked at her father tearfully.
"It"s fine. They will heal soon."
Luna also hadn"t seen Queen Carmen and Prince Bernard for a long time and she hugged Queen Carmen only. As for Prince Bernard, I guess she doesn"t get along well with him. He was such a battle-crazed man before.
After that, it was Queen Carmen"s turn. She told King Harold how she realized that he was swapped. During that time, I asked Celestine to cover Luna"s ears. She doesn"t need to know about what Queen Carmen is talking about yet. She can learn that in the future.
"Hmm… your turn was supposed to be once a month. And considering when Fabio faked his death, I guess it only took Fabio and Luna to find the truth that I was swapped in less than a week. I don"t know night and day during the time I was imprisoned, so I can"t tell how long I"ve been there. Anyway, it"s amazing that you have reached expert level. As expected of my queen." King Harold said.
"You say that, but don"t you want to increase the number of your wife again? With Claudia over there?" Queen Carmen asked.
"I was. But not anymore. At least until this d.a.m.ned cult is destroyed."
So, he intended to woo Claudia again after everything is over? Well, not that it matters to me.
Lastly, it was Prince Bernard who introduced King Harold to his wife. They were never married officially, but the people here already treated them as a husband and wife.
"I"m a grandpa? That"s cool." King Harold said.
With how many wives he has, he was surprised to get a grandchild? Does that mean Prince Bernard"s son is his first grandson?
I know that the baby is a boy with my eyes. Though I haven"t informed Prince Bernard yet.
"Anyway, what about the others?" King Harold asked after he finished talking with his family members here.
"Can we start the discussion now? Though I think an introduction is necessary first. Well, I"m Roy. The man who saved you. You already know Old man Henry, Albert, Lynn, and Claudia, so I don"t need to introduce them. Then, the healer there is my lover, Kayla. The one nursing you is another one of my lovers, Sophie. The curious ghost is Sonia. That Slime is Victoria. This serpent wrapping himself around my waist is Spot. And Celestine will introduce herself."
I think it"s best for her to introduce herself with her status. It"s to see his reaction as well.
"My name is Celestine. Expert level mage. Formerly, I was a cult member with high position. Though I betrayed them and joined Roy and the others here. My other status is I was the former princess of Consenza Empire, and also the older sister of current Empress Lynn." Celestine introduced herself.
"…what exactly did I miss?"
Not just King Harold, the other who don"t know that were shocked as well. Well, we never told that to the other since we were busy thinking of a way to rescue King Harold.
"Before we discuss our next move, there are many things that we need to inform you about. From Roy, the cult, tournament, and lastly, our next move. King Harold, are you prepared to hear them right now, or do you need to get some rest before we continue?" It was Albert who spoke.
"I"ll listen right now. My mind is clear. We can continue." King Harold said.
The first thing that Albert said is about Fabio"s power. Which he also has a similar power. And then he pointed at me while telling about my power and what Aura user is.
"You can see through things!?"
Of course the first thing in anyone"s mind is perverted thought. They are right. but I won"t tell them.
"I can. I can tell that the gender of your grandchild is a boy. Congratulation in advance. He"s also quite healthy baby. If you need my help for the delivery process, you can contact me through the ghost. By the way, even Albert"s children were delivered by me personally. And I have more knowledge than ordinary doctors thanks to my memory from the future."
Obviously, the first thing I need everyone to know is that I"m a doctor. Now that they know I"m a doctor, the thought that I"m a pervert because of this power should be diminished.
After that, Albert, Old man, Lynn, and Fabio explained everything to King Harold.
As for me, I went down to the dining room again to get second and third meal. I"m still starving.
